In the meantime Lady Ursula and
Paul had come downstairs ready for
their walk. In the hall they met
Lord Eastling, whose
changed when saw
with his wife.

“L thought, Ursula, you were go-
ing out with me,” said he coldly.

But her sweet, pleading face made
peace between them.

“Tam going out with both of you,
she said.

Very reluctantly the two men ac-
coimnpanied her, while she exerted her-
self, by addressing first the one and
then the other, to keep the peace be-
tween them and to make conve:sa-
tion in which both must join her,

She had set her heart on thig op-
portunity of bringing the two men
nearer together, on smoothing away
difficulties and on effecting a real re-
conciliation between them, for which
she believed that her talk with
brother that morning ,had prepared
the way.

them back—my pearls! my pearls!”

And she stammered out a confus-
jed account of the return of the three
lrows of pearls that morning, sent
through the post in a shallow carton
box, without a word of explanation.
Lady Ursula looked at the box, at
the pearls within it, and at the di-
irection outside. This was in an old-
ifashioned female hand. The post-
|\mark was that of the nearest town.
She rose to her feet, in great excite-
ment, and ttirned to her husband as
soon as Mrs. [Tinchden
room,

“Paul,” said she, “it was that hor-
rid looking man we saw’ yesterday
who stole them and who sent them
jback. Don’t you remember? The
‘man who looked at us so oddly; the
man my brother spoke about!”

Paul shrugged his shoulders.

“What should he have to do with
t?” he asked in surprise.

But she persisted.

“Tam sure I’m right,”
“Tom looked
and so did I,”

“But if he was” the thief, why
should he send the pearls back?”

“T think,” said Lady Ursula, “that
he had heard of the stir about them,
and that he was afraid.”

“IT shouldn’t wonder,” said Paul ab-
sently, as he read for the second
‘time a letter which the post had just
‘brought him.

The letter contained these words—

“Dear Syd,—We aren.t going to
'stand no more nonsense. Unless we
{have the money or the pearls, Evans
and me, as you promised by tomor-
row night we will queer your pitch
lwith your fine friends.
| “So now you know. No more at
‘present, from your friend, B. G.”

‘including Brady Gane’s initials at the
jfoot. Then he threw it into the fire
jand watched it burn.

Ursula had made herself known and |

beloved, and where her two compan-
ions were amused at the welcome
given her by the uncouth natives of
the Black Country.

On the way they passed a man
who was evidently not a native of
the place—a man who turned on his
heel and disappeared, as it were, fur-
tively at their approach. Lord East-
ling looked at the disappearing figure
with a strong impression that he had
scen it before somewhere.

On their return homewards they

of the two men

who had made him
fecl sure, by their behavior in the
Strand restaurant, that they were
friends, or perhaps accomplices, of
Paul Payne.

The whole ugly story of the pearl
necklace, and his doubts, flashed viv-
idly back into his mind as Lord
Fastling looked from Paul, walking

on the other side of Lady Ursula, to!

this skulking figure in the overcoat
and bowler hat.

What was the man doing there?

Full of his doubts of his brother-
in-law, which had perforce been as-
suaged somewhat by his sister’s earn-
est, trusting advocacy, Lord East-
ling stopped short and watched the
man as he slunk away once more,

“Who's that fellow?” he asked
sharply, addressing Paul.

“How on earth should I know?
replied his brother-in-law lazily.
“Some loafer in want of a pal to treat
him, I should imagine.”

“Pte looked,” observed Lady Ur-
sula, anxious to appease the antagon-
istic feeling which she perceived to
be rising again in her companions,
“as if he hoped to find a friend am-
ong us,”

“That’s what I thought,” said Lord
Fastling, drily.

Lady Ursula looked at her brother |

with sudden fear.

“He has a most disagreeable coun-
tenance,” said she, “He has a horrid
look.”

“Yes,” said Lord Eastling, while
Paul said nothing.

lord Lastling remained silent for
the rest of the walk, being deeply oc-
cupied in conjecture concerning the
appearance of this man in the neigh-
borhood. Instantly all his doubts
arose and he set himself to
keep once more’ upon the
movements of his brother-in-law, de-
termined to prevent a meeting be-
tween him and this man whom he be-
licved to be his accomplice, and in
whom he recognized the person who
had visited Paul at the hotel,

Paul, however, never left the house
for the rest of the day, except to go
with his brother-in-law to the post
office to buy some stamps and post
some letters.

On the following morning,
Lady Ursula was having her
dressed, there was a violent knocking
at her door, and Mrs. Finchden came
in, radiant and breathless with ex-
eitement. In the doorway stood her
husband, laughing and apologetic.

“Oh, Lady Ursula,” gasped the ex-
cited lady, as she rushed at her
friend and threw herself on the floor
beside her, “It’s all right. I've got

“Why, Paul, what’s the matter

| He turned to her, and taking her
{by the elbows, tried to smile.

“Nothing, my .dear. What should
|be the matter?”

“Who was that letter from?”

“The one I’ve thrown into the
fire? Well, it was a begging letter,
jthat was all.”

Her countenance grew clearer.

“Ah, it’s very dreadful to get
those,” she said with a little sigh.
\“One doesn’t like to take no notice
}of them, for fear the story the writer
{tells may be true.”

He shook his head.

“It is never true, you know,” he
said. .

“Paul,” said she, as her face grew
|grave again, “how do you explain the
|return of the pearls?”

He shrugged his shoulders.

“T scarcely know how to explain
‘it, unless it really was a_ practical
joke, as I put it to them yesterday,”

But she shook her héad.

“I don’t think it was that,” she
said, “I’m more inclined to think
jthey were stolen by one of the ser-
vants in league with someone out-
iside. Do you remember the man we
‘saw yesterday, skulking about just
;outside the village, the man who
seemed to be on the watch for some-
lone?”
| “My dear, you’ve suggested already
jthat that poor wretch was concerned
jin this affair, but I can’t see the fain-
jtest possibility of any connection, I]
ishould like you to tell me what put
jsuch a wild idea into your head.”

Lady Ursula did not at once reply.
It was quite true, as Paul knew, that
ishe had “hit the right nail on the
head,” but it was only by accident,
and womanlike she would have been

Thus, the man had looked hard at
|Paul, and Paul, on seeing him, had
quickly averted his head; he had
glanced out of the corners of his eyes
jat Lord Eastling, who had evidently
been startled to see him there.

These trifles, amounting to noth-
ing much in all yesterday, seemed to
Lady Ursula to have assumed great-
er importance today. Yet still she
would have found it hard to account
for the connection she imagined be-
tween the appearance of the strange
man and the restitution of the pearls.

Rumania In History

Her Place in European History las

Though Rumania up to the nine-

have played a conspicuous part in
the advance of civilization, her place

|in European history is an honorable

one, and, if less spectacular than
those of her reighbors, her achieve-
ments have proved of supreme value.
By their stubborn resistance to. the
Ottoman invaders, Rumanians, -in
common with the other peoples in-
habiting Oriental Kurope, made pos-
sible that stability and sectirity that
enabled Western civilization to de-
velop, and, although they came under
the sway of the ‘Turks, yet the Ru-

jmanians, by their determined stand,

so weakened the power of the Mos-

}lem invaders, that they were unable

Like a great breakwater, these little
nations held the Ottoman waves in
check, and left western Europe free
to forge ahead untrammeled by the
of Moslem incursions. Until
1877 the tribute imposed five centur-
ics earlier, following the battle of Ro-
sovo, was the basis of the relations
between Rumania and Turkey. Un-
like Hungary, which for over a cen-
tury was a Turkish province, the
Rumanian provinces never fell com-
pletely under the sway of the con-
queror. Under the suzerainty of
Turkey, however, Rumania became a
;mjere pawn in the politics of the great
| European powers. She lost Buko-
|wina to Austria in 1775, and Bessar-
labia to Russia in 1812. The jealous-
ies of the European powers alone
saved Rumania from greater terri-
torial losses.

Under Prince Carol, who was _ re-
lated to the King of Prussia and to
Napoleon IIJI., Rumania maintained
a bolder front against partition and
won her independence. Bulgaria
since then has done much to keep
alive Rumanian suspicions. At the
outset of the first Balkan campaign,
1910-11, Bulgarian official documents
referred to the Dobrogea, which was |
|Rumanian territory, as a “Bylgaria |

Another Theory Shattered

A study of history will show that
we may, with an easy conscience, dis-
miss the theory of Treitschke that
war is a health-giving tonic which
Providence must be expected con-
stantly to offer to the human race for
its own good, Apart altogether
from the hopes we entertain ‘for the
victory in this war of a cause which
we believe to be just, we may desire
in the interests of all mankind that
its issue should discredit by defeat a
theory which is noxious as well as
baseless. The future progress of
mankind is to be sought, not through
the strifes and hatreds of the nations,
but rather by their friendly co-oper-
ation in the healing and enlightening
works of peace, and in the growth of
a spirit of friendship and mutual con-
fidence which removes the causés of

HELP FOR

Mrs. Conley Got Help.

Here is a letter from a woman who
bad to work, but was too weak and suf-
fered too much to continue. How she
regained health :—

with female weakness that I could not

own work again. I

recommend it to any woman suffering
from female weakness, You may pub-
lish my letter if you wish.’’—Mrs. JAMES
ConLey,516 St. Clair St., Frankfort,Ky.

No woman suffering from any form of
female troubles should lose hope until
she has given Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg-
etable Compound a fair trial.

This famous remedy, the medicina.
ingredients of which are derived from
native roots and herbs, has for forty
years proved to be a most valuable tonic
and invigorator of the female organism.

Measuring Hay in Stack

Rule for Measuring Hay Which Has |
Been Proven Satisfactory

I:stimating the number of tons of |
ihay in stack by measuring is often |
lresorted to when it is inconvenient
'or impractical to weigh it. It is |
‘impossible to give a rule for mea-
lsuring hay which is entirely satis-

been used, states Professor E. G,

proximates the correct weight:

TRAINING AND A GOOD PARTNER
WILL MAKE STRONG COMBINATION

WIFE HELPS THE SOLDIER-FARMER TO SUCCEED

The Government Is Making a Special Monetary Allowance in
Addition to the Pension,\for the Maintenance of Both the Soldier
And his Family, While he is Receiving Elementary Training

oO

“What makes you think you will
eucceed as a farmer?”

The question was asked of a return-
ed soldier who had expressed a very
strong desire to get on the land.

“My wife,” he answered,

“Do you mean to say she persuaded

our”

“No, I didn’t need any persuading.
But she wants to go as much as I
do.”

“Does she
means?”

“She ought. She was born and
brought up on a farm; she is not
afraid of hard work; and she prefers
to live in the country anyway.”

“For the children’s sake?”

“We've got none, worse luck. No,
she likes it better herself,”

That man’s battle is half won.

He was not a farm boy himself,
and he does not imagine that the
little experience he possesses is en-
ough. He is therefor taking advan-
tag of the clementary ‘training, in
such matters as gardening and poul-
try raising, already started by the
Military Hospitals Corimission at
some of its Convalescent Hospitals;
and he aims at taking a course of
extra instruction later on at one of
the agricultural schools.

As announced some time ago, the
Government makes -special monetary
allowances, in addition to the pen-
sion, fér the maintenance of both the
soldier and his family while he is be-
ing trained, if he has to learn a new
occupation; so no man should have
the slightest hesitation about taking
full advantage of the training put at
his disposal to increase his capacity
end better his position. , ‘

A trained man, and a wife both
experienced and willing, make a team
hard to beat.

It is very interesting to see that
this fact has been recognized in. a
most practical way in England.
There the Government decidéd, a few
months ago, to start, by way of ex-
periment, three pioneer land colon-
wes of ex-soldiers—or rather “ex-
service men,” for even, the man now
ploughing the sea will have his
chance of. ploughing the soil.

The, President ofthe Board of Ag-
riculture has just announced that in
selecting sciilers for these colonies
“preference will be given, as between
men of equal merit and qualifications,
to those whose wives or sisters 0
daughters have acquired proficiency
in milking or other farm operations,
as the result of their employment on
the land cither before or during the
War.”

As a-matter of fact, women in the
Old Country have taken a large and
even extraordinary share in working
the farms, which the war has depriv-
cd of so many of their usual labor-
crs. Women of every social rank
have voluntcered to do this, and have
kept: their pledge, though many of
them were not only quite
tomed to manual labor, but free from
any necessity to work at all. ,

understand what it

Canadian women, the vast majority

of them, have never been in that po- |

sition,
ber even of the town-dwellers am-
ong them were brought up on farms.
Many of our returned soldiers, there-
fore, who think of going “back to the
land” will have a great advantage in
the experience of their wives as well
as in the special training offered
them,

Special training is given, of course,
for a variety of other industries, The
Breatest care is taken to choose the
occupation best suited to each iman’s
ability, But, unquestionably, agricul-
ture is the great national indi stry
and needs the energies of every man
qualified to undertake it.

To Advertise Butter

The National Dairy Council, ac-
cording to reports sent out by the
secretary, is planning to follow the
example of the orange and raisin
growers, and put on an advertising
campaign to cover three ycars, spend-
ing at the rate of $20,000 a month.
This money will be used in advertis-
ing the value and the healthfalness
of milk, buttermilk, cheese and ice
cream, ‘The advertisements will be
carried in the leading magazines and
daily papers. It is an ambitious pro-
gramme, but not at all impracticable
if the dairy interests are willing to
pay the bills. lf the advertising is
well done, it will be profitable to the
dairymen of the country. It will in-
crease the consumption of dairy
products permanently; and if the sup-
ply can be increased to take care of

the demand without too much of an,

advance in prices, the results will be

How Britain Cares
For Her Soldiers

\Former French Minister Loud in
Praisé of British System

Adolphe

Brisson,
French

formerly a
minister, has returned to
jParis from a visit to the British
front. He gives a very vivid and in-
teresting description of how a great
army is administered in the field.

Of especial importance is the
manner in, which the British soldier
is cared for.

“We meet generals who arc

jonly warriors,” said M. Brisso, “but
|who are great administrators, trained
in- India, Egypt, Africa, accustomed
to plan the details of a campaign.
| They spare neither expense nor trou-
ble in establishing the base of a leng-
thy military action.
{| “I admired their calm confidence in
ithe sovereign power of Great Britain.
| Always they made the same state-
}ment:

“We English need time to under-
stand. We did not know war like
this, It had to be learned. We are
‘slow in starting, but we are there
;now, and nothing can stop us.’
| “The greatest commendation is due
to the sanitary service. On principle
ithe English soldiers do not want
barracks. The fighter must live and
be cared for under a tent. He
breathes better; cleanliness is easier
|to keep; vermin are easier to destroy;
every morning everything is burned.

“In camp, be it for the healthy or
the wounded, flowers cheer the eye;
jthe English soldiers delight in them,
| “On their arrival the men receive
thorough and vigorous disinfection.
They are bathed and scrubbed,
‘clothing boiled and washed; then
the soldier is dressed neatly in a
white shirt with soft collar, red tie,
blue vest with white revers and olive
trousers.

“He is then taken to a paradise, a
garden in which are scattered the

‘sleeping tents, dining tents; for his|

recreation he finds tennis courts amid
flowers, and benches to rest upon.

For his comfort even a dentist; yes, |

,even a. chiropodist!» And the menu!
the attentions, the cheer!

; “‘We mean,’ said a general to me,
on secing my amazement, ‘that on

{may be able to say to his comrades:
)If you are ill or wounded, you will
jbe mighty well off in the hospital’’
| “Beg noted here, too, that nurses
jand solfliers in the service of ambu-

‘lances and hospitals are in comfort-,13 years old and lived at Gaglian be- have had Dr.

‘after. Give him his roast beef and
he will fight well.”

‘Small Grain Exhibits

The Influence for Better Crops Re-
sulting from Fair Activities’

The use of better seed offers one
of the most effective methods for
increasing the yield of farm crops.
The. work of seed improvement as-
sociations and individuals who care-
fully select: their own seed, has re-
sulted in the general use of better
seed. Competition in producing and
displaying crop products of high
quality at agricultural fairs is an-
other influence which should have an
increasing benefit on the quality of
jseed planted. The influence for bet-
jter crops resulting from fair activi-
ities would be greater if more per-
‘sons exhibited their products and if
\greater care would be taken in the
‘selection and preparation of exhibits.

The Dominion By-Product and Re-

The war has progressed sufficiently

jon German efficiency in the actual
jfield of battle. Where is her boasted
jsuperiority? Most people think she
jhas done surprisingly well as a fight-
jing unit. The facts warrant an en-
tirely different conclusion. Boasting
of a marvellous secret service, and
apparently prepared for a world war,
she can never be called efficient in
jthe face of her gross underestimation
jof brave little Belgium. Apparently
expecting a triumphal march through
Belgium and a speedy attack in force

jthis great “machine” was held up a
full month by the despised Belgians,

‘Persistent Italian Boy Who Became

The Italian army has the distinction
,of being the only army engaged in
jthe war that has a,corporal in its
‘ranks who is almost a baby in age.

|two army chauffeurs became fainiliar
with the fighting forces of his coun-
try, One day he rode out to the
trenches on the army trucks: after
‘some argument, and was affectionate-
i\ly received by the soldiers who pro-
‘moted him to corporal on the spot.

Proud of his newly gained distine-
tion, Margutti soon secured a uniform
and sewed his corporal bars on him-
self. He spent some time in the
trenches and took active part in the
fighting, proving himself remarkably
{courageous before the onslaughts of
the Austrian hordes.

The captain of Margutti’s division
came along to inspect the troops one
morning and was much impressed by
the business-looking lad who stood
erect, on guard, his rifle at his shoul-
der. Upon being asked what he was
doing, the boy answered: “I am fight-
ing, sir.” “What class do you belong
to?” inquired the captain, “Third
elementary class, sir,” came the re-
ply, “but I have becn promoted cor-
poral,”

The officer could not refrain from
laughing at this answer and took the
yrave Youngster in his arms, kissing
him affectionately, The child) was
sent back home, but he didsnot re-
main there long as” the officer had
promised to use his influence to get
hint back in the trenches, and he did.
Margutti is now fighting with the re
gular army, and is a real corporal,

' The Wall of Triple Steel

Had it not been for “the impreg-
nable wall of triple steel,” the war
would have been over before this.
Germany would have triumphed; hu-
niilaiting terms of peace would lrave
been signed, We and the dominions,
and indeed, our allics and the neu-
tral world, owe much to British sea-
power, Whatever may be Germany's
‘naval policy now that Grand Admiral
von Tirpitz, the chief pirate, has
gone, the debt of the civilized peo-
ples in both hemispheres to the offi-
cers and men who serve under the

clusion that from, now on, instead of
burning his straw stack as he has
hitherto done, the farmer will,
through the efforts of the Research
Society, conserve his straw and make
his own gas, thus dispensing with the
paying for and hapling of coal in the

The gasses extracted from the
straw cannot only be used for heat-

Salt For Live Stock

Feeding Too Freely Is Injurious to
| Animals

Samples ~ of salt are occasionally
sent to experimental stations by far-
mers for analysis, with the statement
that animals, usually cattle or sheep,
were poisoned after eating it in con-
ssiderable quantities. In mo case has
any foreign substance that would
account for the poisoning been
‘found,

' Since salt is necessary to life and
is in universal use, it is difficult to
realize that in large amounts it
is poisonous, Many cases of poison-
ing in chickens have been reported,
and occasionally in larger animals, In

‘one instance salt was by mistake used!

instead of sugar in making a cake.
|The cake was given to the chickens
and. killed all of them,
very susceptible to salt poisoning and
while the amount that it takes to kill
a horse or cow is considerable, this
sometimes ogeurs when these animals
are especially salt hungry,

| When animals have not had access
‘to salt for a long time, it is safer to
'give it to them sparingly at first.

| $2,708.56 for a Car of Wheat

| Railway companies of recent years
have imereased the capacity of grain
cars considerably. This along with
high prices that have prevailed at
times since the outbreak of the
European war has made it possible
to net, large sums on individual car
shipments,

A very few years ago a remittance
of $1,000 would look big to any ship-
‘per. This year checks of over twice
that amout are comparatively com-
mon, However, the highest return on
a single car yet recorded was made
by the Grain Growers’ Grain Co.,
Ltd. of Winnipeg, on August 30,
when a car from Travers, Alta., car-
rying 1,920 bushels 10 Ibs, graded
No. 1 Northern, with no dockage,
and sold at $1.56. The check is-
sued by the Grain Growers’ Grain Co.
in settlement was $2,708.56. There
is little doubt but that this is the larg-
lest sum that has been paid in the
history of the Canadian West for
any single shipment sold through the
regular market channels,
